Contents NoteMany astronomy instructors adopted the first edition of Observational astronomy as their primary text in advanced undergraduate courses. Unfortunately the first edition went out of print in the late 1990s. By that time it had also become apparent that it was in need of revision. In particular, the charge coupled device (CCD) had already displaced nearly all other detectors in astronomy, but the first edition included only a short paragraph on CCDs. Several chapters, instead, focussed on photographic techniques. These included photometry, astrometry and spectroscopy. All discussions of photographic techiques have been replaced with CCD techniques in the present edition. The present edition was the Master's thesis project of David Oesper at Iowa State University.
